A FEW weeks ago the citizens of the
town Of Onancock on the Eastern
Shore of Virginia held public meetings
for the purpose of securing proper ap-
planes for the protection of their
property against fire. Like so many
similar movements in other towns the
matter fell through, and Onancock was
left without such protection. On Tues
day last big fire came along, and
twenty-three buildings were destroyed
involving loss of $50, 900. Isn't there
a suggestion in this for the people of
Elkton:? We have no adequate fire ap-
phance. We have had meetings just
as Onaucock. We can only hope that
our local experience may furnish no
turtler parallel with that of Onancock.

EVERYBODY knows what an lmpor-
tant factor in human existence milk is.
1t is not only in universal use as food but
it is delicate article of diet, subject to
many changes which impair its live
giving qualities, and render it the easy
vehicle of disease. Other articles OF
food are easily detected when they be-
come tainted or unwholesome. They
warn their consumers by their odor, or
by their viSaDle condition. But milk
on the contrary may contain the germs
of contagious disease, and yet so far as
taste or appearance are concerned may
be perfectly deceptive, and not in any
manner distinguishabe from that which
Is perfectly pure. Our readers can
readily rec all an epidemic of typhoid
fever in this town, which was by COM
petent ply sicians readily traceable to
infected milk. 1t being therefore so
important an article of food, it is right,
iii fact II is imperative, that the public
should be protected in its general use,
against the greed of dealers who in our
llrser towns and cities. so generally
aduIterale it. We refer to this matter
to call attention to the stringent fea
lures of a law intended to prevent
traffic in aduterated impure and I'M
wholesome milk, now pending before
the legislature of our nelghboring
State OF Pennsylvania.
1t Is a stringent bill, and it is proper
that it should be SO, as milk and wa
ter" regulation of so vital matter
would avail nothing. 1t provides that
only licensed dealers shall sell or carry
or offer for sale in future, and that in
spectors of milk shall frequently examine
and analyle samples OF the milk sent or
brought to market, and shah publish the
results Of these examinations. This is
10 protect the public and it is further
provided that persons found selling wa
tered or unwholesome or contaminated
milk, shah be guilty of miSdemeanor,
and upon conviction shall be fined fifty
dollars for the first offence, and one
hundred dollars for each subsequent of
fence and if in either case the fines be
not Immediately paid, then imprson-
ment for thirty days or until paid.
Skinned milk is to be exposed for
sale only in plainly lettered cans, and
transported as such from the producers,
and the sale OF SKINNED milk" for
whole milk from shops or wagons is
made a mIsdemeanor, subject to the
penalties OF the act. A license is to
cost five dollars for each cart or other
vehicle, and for each salesroom, stand
or store in which milk is actually re-
tailed the license is to be carried
with each wagon or other vehicle, and
exposed TO view at each stand or store.

Consumption of Liquors in the United States

Consumption of Liquors in the United States.
The quarterly report of the chief of the
bureau of statistics shows that the con-
sumption of distilled spirits, domestic and
imported, in this country has increased
from 43 600, 600 gallons in 1910 to u 000,
600 in 1886; of wines, from 4, 500 600 gal
Ions to % 900 900; and OF malt liquors,
from % 600 900 to 642, 900, 900. the con-
sumption per capita during the same
period decreased as Yards distilled spirits
from about two and a-hat gallons to
about one and a-quarter gallo as; and in
creased as regards wine from twenty nine
hundredths to thirty eight -hundredths
gallons, and malt liquors from less than
one and a half to more than eleven gal
Ions. An elaborate statement made by
Mr.. F. n. Barrett, editor of the New
York Grocer, is given, which sets forth
that the present average expenditure in
this country per annum for malt and spir-
ituous liquors aud beer at retail is $70O.-
900, 600. The drinking population is esti-
mated to be Gin 1866 II, 925, Alt, making
the average expenditures Per capita
S45 80 Mr.. Barrett shows bv tables COW
arlng the rive years from 1882 to 1856, IN
elusive, that the consumption of spirits
is decreasing, while that OF beer is in
creasing, and that there is a reduced use
of wine as a beverage. during this per-
IOd, " he says, the consumption of cOf-
fee has risen from S2-l0 pounds per capita
to II 100 pounds. Do not these facts
show that the mider stlmulants are driv-
ing out their fiery competitor? And is it
not due to the growing agitation of the
temperance question:" MIR. Barrett says
the wholesale cost OF the liquors for which
the retailers receive seven hundred mil
lions Is not more than three hundred mil
lion dollars.
He makes brief calculation of the
cost of liquors as compared with that of
food, clothing and shelter, reaching the
conclusion tn the American people ex-
pend from ~ to II dollars for the nee
essaries' named to every dollar paid out
for liquor. From cable covering the
five years ended with 1856 it is learned
that the consumption OF distilled spirits
per capita has SIT adilv increased in France
"a 100 gal ons to - 100 gallons; that it
has varied in this country between one
and forty-six one hundredths in 1888 and
one and twenty four hundredths gallons
in 1884 and 1880; that the United King
dom consumes a little more than gallon
per capita, and that the consumption in
Germany has decreased from one and
thirty xo hundredths in 1881 to one and
fourteen hundredths in 1883. France,
during the same period increased her
wine consumption from eighteen and
a-half to nearly thirty seven gallons.
while this country and the United King
dom, beginning with less than half gal
Ion per head, show slight falling off.
In the matter of beer consumption dur
ing this period the United States increas-
ed her average from little less than ten
to little more than eleven gallons; the
United Kingdom held her own at about
thirty three gallons, and Germany did
the same at about twenty three gallons.
